DCNM Discovery Issues

[Carlton Patterson]

Hello Community,

Can someone please help determine why I'm unable to discover our NX7's and NX5's, using DCNM-LAN. From the screen shot when I click on 'Click here to discover the devices in DCNM', I'm taken to the web page showing the devices that have been discovered (see screen shot 2). However, the devices don't appear in the Cisco Prime DCNM-LAN.

And I imagine the reason I'm not able to see any devices in the topology view is because I'm not able to discover any devices?

Please help.

Cheers

Carlton

Hi Carlton,

After discovery you need to perform an "deep discovery" for the devices.

You can find this here:

admin>data sources>LAN

Mark the task and press the "edit LAN' pencil icon.

Then select the device and OK. After this the devices will show up in DCNM - LAN.

Cheers

Areijken,

I'm not getting the 'admin' option :-(

Hi.

It looks like de admin tab is an authentication something...

From your print screen you need to mark a single task seed. Then click on edit lan (pencil icon)

and select the device to perform deep inspection.

Hope this info will help you.
